Grown Whole: Honoring Our Children's Journey

Menu

Concept

The concept of revering childhood seems natural to me… Why? Because I remember mine. It was challenging. I wanted my efforts recognized, as well as my thoughts and opinions respected and considered.

As I matured, I discovered the concepts of honoring and respect… It occurred to me that all children and their journey (that being their childhood) are to be revered. Admired.
Acknowledged, fully.
